New types of ruthenium catalysts were developed for the chelation-assisted intermolecular olefin hydroesterification that employs 2-pyridylmethyl formate as an ester source. Two classes of ligands, NHCs and phosphines, were found to facilitate the reaction delivering isomeric ester products (linear versus branched) with different ratios, thus allowing access to ligand-guided selective hydroesterification.
开发了新型钌催化剂用于螯合辅助的烯烃间酯氢酯化反应,使用 2-吡啶基甲酯作为酯源。发现两类配体,NHCs 和膦配体,可促进反应,得到不同比例的异构体酯产物(直链与支链),从而实现配体导向的选择性酯氢酯化。
